O.K. - here's what I have so we know what hardware I'm working with.
Headunit - Alpine CDA-9847
Amps:
Eclipse 32430 for mids and tweets (75 x 4)
Eclipse 34230 for sub (370 x 2)
Front mids & tweets : Diamond 5 1/4" and tweets to go in factory locations
Rear deck : got nothing yet - recommendations?
Sub : Kicker L7 (90% positve it's a L7) 4 ohm round DVC. Went on my buddy's recommendaton here - he works in a car stereo shop. All I know is that it's a black cone, not the silver one - don't know if there's any performance differences. Hasn't shown up yet.
I am no expert in car audio, and I prefer tight bass to boomy loose stuff. So with that in mind, what is going to be the best location in the trunk, and with the woofer facing which direction? Sealed or ported box? I've never had a ported box before, and I have liked the sound so far.
I am placing a stress bar in the car, and I am really hoping to use it for an anchor point, unless the woofer should be placed in a drastically different place, like behind the rear driver wheelwell.
I am getting rid of the leather covering on the rear seat, and getting a custom cloth deal done, as well as loosing leather seats and interior panels.
I am very good/excellent at fiberglass, carpentry, and welding so whatever you come up with, I can re-create.
Post up the ideas!
